Editor-in-chief Lorraine Candy said: “This is an
exciting time for the evolution of Elle, which has undergone a redesign
in the past year, focusing on fashion. Now we will turn our attention
to beauty and run our beauty department rather like an American glossy,
using the best freelance stylists as well as our own team.”
Riedl
replaces Rosie Green, who was appointed beauty director of Elle’s
sister title Red in April. Burney replaces Sarah-Joan Ross, who was
appointed beauty director of Hachette’s B this month.
